New Rule: #BlueToo | Real Time with Bill Maher (HBO)

interesting view on things …

In the wake of an explosive New York Times article There’s an Epidemic of Discrimination Against Pregnant Women at Work exposing just how difficult conditions remain for pregnant workers in America, the only solution is to pass a federal law that ensures pregnant workers’ safety and access to fair and equal employment conditions.

We need your help to make sure that Congress passes the Pregnant Workers Fairness Act(H.R.2417/S.1101). The PWFA would promote nondiscrimination by ensuring that pregnant workers are not forced out of their jobs unnecessarily or denied reasonable job accommodations that would allow them to continue working while maintaining healthy pregnancies.

Tell your members of Congress we need the Pregnant Workers Fairness Act now!

Better Balance

I was harassed.

I was jailed.

I was beaten bloody.

All because I stood up for my right to vote…and the rights of millions of other African Americans across the country.

That was over 50 years ago.

Friends, we cannot go back to a time when our voices were silenced

the right to vote is still under attack today.

The Supreme Court dismantled the Voting Rights Act. State legislatures across the country are passing restrictive laws that keep African Americans from the polls. And Republicans in Congress have voted to eliminate the Election Commission.

We all need to stand up and say this is wrong. And we can’t back down until the right to vote is protected in every corner of our country.

So, will you join me? Please sign your name today and protect the right to vote:

Thank you for standing up and speaking out,

John Lewis
